right? Just in case LSU wants to be dick about it. Don't know if the guy above is correct or not about the image trademark. Sounds strange that it isn't if true.

Like I said...they are pretty hard assed about it. I'm just suggesting being careful, that's all.

Not you.

GeorgetheGreek says the logo isn't trademarked which is a tad surprising if true.


Did you have a run in for using the circle tiger head?

Lol. As bad as you don't wanna hear it...without. I just think it kinda cheapens it if that makes any sense. Totally get the idea, just rather it without it.

It's a stencil that LSU "stole" and it was not created by LSU thus they can't trademark the tiger head. That's why you've seen the move to toonces.

Just like how the old logo with LSU in all capitals and Tigers in script underneath is no longer in use because LSU couldn't trademark that font ... they just borrowed it. Thus they created and trademarked the geaux font.

That would be sweet if we include the tiger head. I didn't wait for a response. I have the local guys looking at it right now.

Stripe across the seam at the top of the shoulder is a complicating factor though not huge. May have to heat transfer that part otherwise screenprint will have a white space at the seam.

Me? no...but then I just assumed that shite was WAY off limits! haha

I made a handful of shirts around 2001 and 2002 and was selling them on CafePress. I was using my handle "GeauxTiger" as part of them, and of course they were purple and gold, etc. Most of them were silly internet things at the time, play on words with players names like Geaux Reaux, etc. LSU came in when they saw some of my web ads and saw GeauxTigerGraphics and the use of a tiger image (not an LSU one) in conjunction with the word TIGERS and the colors purple and gold.

They basically argued that despite the fact that the do not have colors trademarked, and they certainly can't trademark the animal TIGER, that using them all together implies LSU, etc. I disagreed and pointed out the ton of Louisiana high schools that all have the same thing, but in the end they were going to fight it and I didn;t want to fight with LSU. It wasn't some huge money making deal...just a few extra bucks and something fun to do.
